These images show the exterior of the Volkswagen Golf GTI
Volkswagen has scheduled the premiere of the updated eighth-generation Golf hatchback (Golf MK8.5) for January 30, and now the company has published sketches demonstrating the design of the model. Moreover, these pictures show the Golf GTI.
The car received a front bumper with a large air intake, an LED jumper between the headlights, cleverly disguised exhaust pipes and large wheels. These images differ from real photos of the Golf, but, on the other hand, it is far from a fact that it was the «heated» GTI version.
The interior of the car will be redesigned: the car will receive a media system with a large screen like the new Volkswagen Tiguan and Passat, and for the first time a voice assistant based on ChatGPT will appear for a Volkswagen car. Later, such a system will be implemented in other Volkswagen models.
The engine range of the Golf MK8.5 will be inherited from the current Golf MK8. In Europe, the basic versions will retain a manual gearbox, but the Golf GTI and Golf R will make do with exclusively the branded “robot.” DSG.
